Is this a temporary thing, or are Globscale backing away from any more sales / support responsibility of the Serverplus. They will still sell in 100 + lots to third parties, who will have to pick up the support for the end customers.

They aren't backing away; the demand is such that there is a long lead time. Whether this is due to unexpectedly high demand, or planning problems preventing adequate stock levels in the first place, who knows ...

Edit: There's also a long lead time on ordering Sheevaplugs (in volume) at the moment.

I don't think it's a problem of high demand but rather they have big problems (overheating, instability) with their product. So they stop orders to solve all the claims they received from customers as me who ask for refund of their gurupulug.
